BellingenNSW<p>Ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred sparks call to cyclone-proof homes as far south as northern NSW</p><p>"The research is really clear that cyclones and severe weather events are coming south along the Queensland and Australian coastline, and that our severe weather events will become more severe... Professor Steve Turton, a climate change expert with Central Queensland University, said homes and buildings outside traditional cyclone zones should now be subject to cyclone ratings, including in south-east Queensland and even northern New South Wales. I would suggest it needs to go down to at least Coffs Harbour." &gt;&gt;<br><a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03-23/ex-tropical-cyclone-alfred-weather-preparation-storm-resilience/105074460" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">abc.net.au/news/2025-03-23/ex-</span><span class="invisible">tropical-cyclone-alfred-weather-preparation-storm-resilience/105074460</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/FossilFuels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FossilFuels</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/plasterboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plasterboard</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/housing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>housing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/cyclone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cyclone</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/infrastructure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infrastructure</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/NSW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NSW</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/storms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>storms</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/floods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>floods</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/disaster" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disaster</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/CoffsHarbour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CoffsHarbour</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/MidNorthCoast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MidNorthCoast</span></a></p>
